Slide 1: John
Definition of robot: a machine capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically, esp. one programmable by a computer.
Definition of rescue: save (someone) from a dangerous or distressing situation.
This robot does exactly this, rescue people from areas where man cannot reach or go. Snake-like robots equipped with cameras, censors, and wheels/arms designed to navigate through rough terrain are being deployed in areas that are too dangerous or too small for humans to go.

Slide 2: John
This concept basically consists of a multi-role robot than can operate under any circumstance and doesn't feel any human emotion/pain. If this is a good thing or a bad we will discuss later on.
B - Describe a specific example in an area of impact (2 slides)

Slide 3: Adam
People and machines
How can we be sure robots are human friendly?
Sensitivity: Does the robot know how hard to pull on a body?
Can the human interact with this robot?
Slide 4: Adam
Reliability
How reliable is the machine towards every situation?:
Sensitivity: Does the robot know how hard to pull on a body?
C - Discuss the advantages and disadvantages on the main stakeholders (4 slides)
Slide 5: John
Advantages
Robots can freely work among radioactivity.
Robots can investigate the dangerous areas such as ruins
Don't need to pay them a salary
Faster calculation
Small robots can work in narrow place.
Slide 6: Adam
Advantages
No resting time needed.
Doesn’t feel pain or fear, if a rock falls on it, it doesn’t matter
Easily transportable
Can be remote controlled at a distance
Parts can be changed
Slide 7: John
Negative Impact
Technology is not developed enough for robots to work effectively.
Robots do not have ability to make clear decision
Need a lot of energy to move robot. (especialy now that the Japanese reactors are in critical damage)
Weak & Slow observation and hearing sense.
Slide 8: Adam
Negative Impact
Cannot distinct dangerous situation
Limited knowledge
Expensive to make
Parts can be hard to find
D - Evaluate the top 3-5 ethical/social issues in order of significance (5 slides)
Slide 9: John
Are robots taking other peoples jobs by doing all the work?
Slide 10:Adam
Is it ethical to use robots to save these people?
Slide 11:John
Could this been seen as a sort of experiment?
Slide 12:Adam
Couldn’t the money used on making/moving/deploying these robots could be used on supplies, shelters, aid?
Slide 13:John
The japanese population doesn’t have a vote as to wether they should use robots in these situations, should people be allowed to choose wether or not robots should save people?

Each criterion is out of 4 marks
4 - excellent with research and
3 - good
2 - satisfactory
1 - minimal
0 - Not evident
Criterion A:
What is the issue arising from the IT system?
Who are the primary stakeholders involved in this issue?
What is the relationship of one of primary stakeholders to the IT system?
Criterion B:
Have you described a detailed step-by-step process that shows a clear understanding of how the IT system works?
Are the major components of the IT system identified?
Does your explanation show how the IT issue came about? (Which of the steps directly relates to the issue and why?)
Is the relationship between the IT system referred to in the article and the concern presented in criterion A explained using appropriate ITGS terminology.
Criterion C:
Have you described the impact of the social/ethical issues on the stakeholders?
(Have you described the advantages and disadvantages for each of the primary stakeholders)
Have you analysed the impact and identified any further problems?
Have you evaluated the impact?
Is there appropriate use of ITGS terminology?
Criterion D:
Have you described an appropriate solution to one problem (disadvantage) that has been identified in C?
Have you looked at both the strengths and weaknesses of your solution?
